Child center in Hamilton

“Our kids are thriving at Campus Creche. We first started our son in Kowhai when we first moved to Hamilton in 2019 & felt immediately at home. The creche teachers became family & supported us through a really tough transition moving cities. Since then our son has moved through each centre & is almost off to school. Luckily we get to keep being part of the community with our daughter recently starting at Whekī. Other than the wonderful kaiako, we really love the huge outdoor spaces & nature-based play our kids get to experience.”

“Absolutely amazing! They go over and beyond to help my son with his current needs and are always planning and helping me prepare for things we may need in the future. I can't speak highly enough of them”

“Wonderful centre, very happy with everything!”

“The best proffessional day care. Caring for every individual child in every way.”

“Best centre in Huntly! home away from home, staff are experienced and they care. Children are supported to learn and grow.”

“We have had both our children go to central kids Dinsdale ( one is still there )and the staff have been amazing Easy to get on with the kids love being there. Lots of stuff to do weather it gardening, making pancakes or just playing There is something for every one”

“Nurture and Bloom is an absolute treat! Staff are always friendly and very accommodating. They are always understanding about personal circumstances and will go the extra mile for everyone. Would definitely recommend it to everyone”

“Our son started in the baby room this year and we couldn't be happier with our decision. Yvonne, Kavita and Keri are all such warm, loving carers and our son is loving it. I was so nervous he wouldn't eat or sleep for them but they can get him down faster than I can! I've collected him at all random times and every time I've come by he's getting sung to, cuddled or entertained with bubbles. Since being there he's learnt so many gestures and skills that he just wouldn't have learnt at home. Nappies and meals are provided, sleep room is warm and smells fresh, floors are clean and heaps of fun things to play with. There's a little loft they can climb up to look out the window which is a lovely spot for them to watch the world. We looked at so many centres and my husband and I just kept coming back discussing River Kids so we knew it was the one! Small and very friendly centre. Couldn't be happier. R & L”

“We can vouch for the wonderful team and environment at Kindercare Frankton. Both our daughters have attended the centre over the past 10 years and have thoroughly enjoyed their time there - the centre is light, bright and welcoming, and the team are fantastic at taking care of and guiding the children as they learn, build friendships and have fun.”

“Growing Wings is our son’s home away from home. The teachers are kind and patient and learning is led by child interests. We appreciate the gentle approach to learning where children are encouraged to explore at their own pace and teachers know when and how to engage to stretch their learning. Growing Wings fosters true connections between children, teachers, and families and makes it feel like an extension of your home and family. We couldn’t recommend them more.”
